"Live Bait" (previously titled "Rise") is the sixth episode of the fourth season of the post-apocalyptic horror television series The Walking Dead, which aired on AMC on November 17, 2013. The episode was written by Nichole Beattie and directed by Michael Uppendahl. The episode centers on The Governor (David Morrissey), who has isolated himself from society after killing his entire army. He has become an aimless wanderer until he meets a small family of survivors.
"Live Bait" marks the first appearance of Alanna Masterson as Tara Chambler.
In a flashback, The Governor (David Morrissey) becomes indifferent following his massacre of the Woodbury army, and he is abandoned by his henchmen Caesar Martinez (Jose Pablo Cantillo) and Shumpert (Travis Love) while he is asleep. He returns to Woodbury, only to find it abandoned and overrun by walkers; he burns down the entire town.
A few months later, the bearded and weakened Governor has become an aimless wanderer. He sees a young girl, who resembles his deceased daughter Penny, in the window of a nearby apartment building. Inside the building, he meets the Chambler family residing there: Lilly (Audrey Marie Anderson) and Tara (Alanna Masterson), the sisters' father David (Danny Vinson), and Lilly's daughter Meghan (Meyrick Murphy), the girl the Governor had seen earlier. The family has sufficient food and arms, and they are waiting for the National Guard. After explaining that he would only stay for the night, he fabricates a false story involving the fall of Woodbury and a new identity, "Brian Heriot," a name he saw painted on a barn. David then requests that The Governor retrieve a backgammon set from a neighbor, which The Governor does.

Me work hard 5 days a week
Sweeping garbage from the street
Come home not want book to read
Not 'nuff pictures for me see
Sit right down in favourite chair
Wearing only underwear
Favourite night is Saturday night
'Cause me can watch hockey fights

Me not like pro basketball
'Cause me short and they all tall
Baseball slow like Forrest Gump
'Cept when Robby spits on ump
Wrestlemania not so great
Me like to see Hulk Hogan skate
TV soccer not so hot
You play bad then you get shot
Me Like Hockey!
Swedish players must be geeks
'Cause they still got own real teeth
Not like Finnish players names

Maybe we should play in winter
